Ah, looking nice is always a good thing. And let me tell you, from a guys point of view we notice. I've been doing the same too and I know she notices and comments on it. I agree with you about the initial encouragement and then pulling away. The same thing happened to me. I think they see you GAL and think, great...they will move on and then I can too. Then once they think about it they start to wonder...why can you move on without them. What happens if I want to come back? Etc... Then they start with the negativity toward what you are doing. If you get a chance to read my sitch I would love a woman's point of view on how to take things.
